Western Cape Electoral Officer Rev Courtney
Sampson today said to date 1.6 million votes have been captured so far out of
2.94 million voters registered in the province.
Sampson said this is the first time in the
history of the provincial IEC that result slips have been captured so fast and
this is due to several innovations that were introduced by the IEC.
“These innovations include introduction of
voting centres which meant that people could vote at sub stations, the
proactive approach in conflict management and teams set up to deal with long
lines throughout the province” Sampson added.
At this time over 50% of the votes have
been captured in the Western Cape
